Overview
- The Simplecom SD570 is a professional-grade dual bay docking station that streamlines the management of modern NVMe M.2 and traditional SATA storage devices. Its USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface delivers sustained 10Gbps throughput, making it ideal for high-volume data transfers, drive imaging, and system migrations.
The standout feature is its offline clone capability. With a simple direction switch, IT teams can duplicate drives independently without requiring a host computer, saving time on repetitive provisioning tasks and reducing deployment complexity. Each bay operates as a separate logical unit, allowing simultaneous access to both drives from a single connection.
Designed for reliability and compatibility, the SD570 supports TRIM command optimisation for SSD longevity and includes USAP for enhanced performance. Setup is immediate—no drivers, no configuration, just plug and play. Whether you're managing data centre infrastructure, performing drive maintenance, or handling secure data transfers, the SD570 provides a robust, efficient solution for dual-drive workflows.

FAQs
Can I access data from both drives at the same time?
Yes. The SD570 supports multi-LUN functionality, which assigns a separate drive letter to each bay, allowing simultaneous read and write access to both the NVMe M.2 and SATA drives from a single USB connection.
What types of SATA drives does it support?
The SATA bay supports both 3.5-inch and 2.5-inch SATA hard drives and solid state drives, making it compatible with most legacy and current SATA storage devices.
Can I clone drives without connecting to a computer?
Yes. The SD570 features offline clone functionality with a direction switch for standalone drive duplication. You can clone between NVMe M.2 and SATA drives without requiring a host computer.
Does it require driver installation?
No. The SD570 is fully plug-and-play compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux systems. No drivers or additional software installation is required.
What is the maximum data transfer speed?
The SD570 supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 with data transfer rates up to 10Gbps, providing fast throughput for large file transfers and drive cloning operations.
Is TRIM support important for SSDs?
Yes. TRIM command support optimises SSD performance by enabling efficient garbage collection, which helps extend SSD lifespan and maintain consistent write speeds over time.
Can I use the docking station with USB hubs or extenders?
While the SD570 can technically work through hubs, direct connection to a USB 3.2 Gen 2 port on your computer or server ensures maximum data transfer speeds and reliability.
